Ferguson Missouri Michael Brown Protests – For the fifth night in a row protests raged through the streets of Ferguson over the killing of unarmed 18 year old Michael Brown.

Armed with rubber bullets, tear gas, body armor, and APCs (Armored Personnel Carriers), officers have been doing their best to maintain order as herds of people consume the suburb.

When the crowd refuses to follow directives, the police waste no time pumping tear gas canisters and firing rubber bullets to regain control. They were successful in securing the vandalism and looting crime scene that occurred Sunday Night.

Contrary to popular belief, many officers have done their best to exercise self-control in dealing with protesters.

“We’ve done everything we can to demonstrate a remarkable amount of restraint. If there was an easy way to fix this, we would have already solved the problem.” said St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar.

Gunfire has been reported from several officers, and so far at least 10 people have been arrested.
